Description

Delightful Cherry White Chocolate Cookies blend rich flavors into a perfect dessert masterpiece. Sweet cherry chunks nestled in buttery dough create irresistible bites you cannot resist enjoying.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Sweet Additions:

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup dried cherries, chopped

Binding and Flavoring Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Orchestrate your baking environment by warming the oven to 350°F and outfitting baking sheets with parchment paper for optimal cookie preparation.
  2. Transform butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar into a creamy, airy mixture using vigorous mixing techniques until the texture becomes exceptionally smooth and voluminous.
  3. Incorporate eggs individually, ensuring complete integration after each addition, then infuse vanilla extract to enhance the aromatic profile.
  4. Construct a delicate dry ingredient foundation by thoroughly combining flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate vessel, then gently incorporate into the wet mixture without overmixing.
  5. Introduce chopped dried cherries and white chocolate chips, folding them delicately throughout the dough to ensure even distribution of flavor elements.
  6. Craft uniform cookie portions by forming consistent 1 ½-inch spheres, strategically positioning them with adequate spacing on prepared baking surfaces.
  7. Transmute the raw dough into golden-edged delicacies through precise baking, targeting 10-12 minutes until edges display a subtle amber tone while centers maintain a delicate, slightly underdone appearance.
  8. Allow cookies to stabilize and set by resting on the baking sheet for a brief five-minute interval before transferring to a cooling rack, enabling perfect textural development.

Notes

  • Softened butter ensures smooth, creamy cookie dough that blends ingredients effortlessly.
  • Chop dried cherries into smaller pieces for more even distribution and balanced flavor in every bite.
  • Chill dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and maintain cookie shape.
  • Experiment with gluten-free flour blend for those with wheat sensitivities, keeping cookie texture similar to original recipe.
